Student Destinations

Our MA is designed equally to prepare students who wish to continue to a PhD in Philosophy (as many do) or to enhance career prospects outside of academia. 

We offer support and advice for students who decide to apply for a PhD and our postgraduate training seminars include sessions on PhD funding and on non-academic jobs for philosophers. 

For those interested in non-academic career routes, this course will help you develop and enhance a range of crucial transferable skills (for example, research writing, project organization, critical thinking) while developing a deeper understanding of the many fascinating and important questions at the heart of philosophical inquiry. These skills will put you in a strong position when it comes to finding employment. 

Our graduates work in teaching, law, social work, computing, the civil service, journalism, paid charity work, business, insurance and accountancy.
